I know some girls actually do get offended by the whole PMS thing, but I am so not one of them. I’m definitely the typical “girl on her period” kind of person.

I get physically sick (puking, headache, dizzy feeling)

Cramps so bad

Ragey

Sad

Food craving

Its pretty ridiculous. Earlier I got pissed off at one of my dogs because he barked, and then I started crying because I got mad at him. Then later I got teary eyed because we have food, but none of it is what I want, so now I’m choosing to not eat, and I’m pissed off because I’m hungry.

@allyfally: I don’t always get the emotional symptoms, but sometimes I totally do get super ragey or burst into tears over something insignificant! My husband is used to it now and will make me hot chocolate and tuck me in on the couch with blankets. 🙂

When I’m not overly emotional, I instead experience painful cramps, back aches and lots of nausea! Occasionally it’s bad enough that I cannot continue with my day. Once I ended up in the hospital, just for severe enough symptoms. (Frequent vomiting, upset bowels, crippling pain. My mother was with me all day and she was worried.) Luckily that happens verrrry rarely.

I have physical symptoms, cramps and I’m usually extra tired, but since going off birth control I don’t have the emotianal symptoms. I am sometimes a little grumpy but that’s because I’m tired and in pain, I don’t have uncontrollable anger and sadness like I did when on birth control.

I didn’t vote because sometimes I get them, but often they aren’t too bad. Some times Im not emotional at all but I might have some physical symptoms, and other times it won’t be too physical but my emotions are kinda messy, and then sometimes its none and sometimes its both!

@kestane: seriously!! I have honestly grown out of ALL my acne issues yet that one prevails. And why the chin!? bizarre. I guess there are worse places but that area is so much more resistant to concealer.

I have found that using skin oils (argan, etc) helps keep them in check a bit…only product that has ever worked on hormonal pimples. ugh!
